One step enough for me.

I'm not sure where to begin... life has been crazy! lots of choices, challenges, and changes recently. but it's good. :) Sometimes I am so anxious to know what will happen, but then I remember something that I heard that has helped me immensely.
About a month ago I was struggling with a decision. I knew what I should do but needed the courage to do it. Doubts flooded my mind as I thought of what would happen if I did what I felt was right. The future seemed so unclear. Then in singing the hymn "Lead Kindly Light" in a sacrament meeting the words spoke to me like they never had before.
"Lead kindly light amid encircling gloom, Lead thou me on.
The night is dark and I am far from home, Lead thou me on.
Keep thou my feet, I do not ask to see
The distant scene, one step enough for me."

Those words were so comforting. I can't see the big picture. I don't know the how, or why, or where of what will happen...but I don't need to. It's enough for me to see one step at a time. :)

I am glad that you are joining the blogging world. I love how the hymns speak to us in our times of need. They are not just beautiful music with beautiful words. They contain encouragement, hope, and love. Take care!
